Chapter 452: Li Chunfeng
After looking at this wordless monument, the three of us hurriedly left Qianling temporarily. Back in the room, the three of us immediately had a small meeting.
"After looking around the Qianling Tomb just now, let's talk about our thoughts first." Makushu said first.
"It seems to me that we will have to take advantage of the empty place of the guard at night and blow up a hole with explosives, and as for the silent explosives, we will hand them over to me. It's just that the scale of this Qianling is estimated to be very large, and I don't know where to start. An Xiangfei said happily.
"No, no, there is a problem, looking at the location of the Qianling Tomb, this mausoleum is not an ordinary mausoleum, since no one has been able to enter the tomb for hundreds of years, it means that this tomb must be exquisite. And not to mention that this is the tomb of the empress Wu Zetian for the time being, just say that whether it is Li Chunfeng or Yuan Tiangang, we should not be careless and despise the feng shui tombs selected by these two individuals. "I said, because after looking at the feng shui acupuncture points of Qianling today, I don't know why there is always a strange feeling in my heart.
Mu Xiu smiled, glanced at me and An Xiangfei and said: "What you said is good, but there are problems, according to my observation today, this Qianling is backed by Liangshan, which is above the dragon vein." From the perspective of feng shui alone, this feng shui layout can be called peculiar, the dragon drinks water, and the phoenix looks at the sky. This is a typical Golden Dragon Ascension Cave. Let's just talk about Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng. The two had a dispute about the feng shui of this Qianling, although in the end Li Chunfeng won, but there are historical and cultural factors, so we also have to refer to Yuan Tiangang's views on this Qianling feng shui. ”
"Who are Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang, what are these two people doing, why do you keep mentioning these two people?" An Xiangfei touched his head and asked with a confused expression.
I smiled and explained: "Li Chunfeng, the father of the Yongren of Qizhou (Fengxiang County, Shaanxi), Li Bo, served as a local official in the Sui Dynasty
Scholar. "Li Bo" is quite literary, calling himself Huang Guanzi, annotating "Lao Tzu", writing ten volumes of Fang Zhi Picture and Essay Collection, "and doing "Astronomical Elephant Fu". These undoubtedly have a certain influence on Li Chunfeng's academic orientation throughout his life. The legend of the "Old Tang Book" is that Li Chunfeng is "young and handsome, well-read in group books, especially the study of yin and yang in the Ming Dynasty." ”
As early as the early years of Zhenguan, Li Chunfeng emerged in the Li Tang Dynasty, and the reason was due to his astronomical attainments. The calendar used in the early Tang Dynasty was the "Wuyin Yuan Calendar" compiled by Fu Renjun, which had certain defects, Li Chunfeng made a detailed study of it, put forward suggestions for revision, and Tang Taizong sent people to investigate and adopt some of his suggestions. In ancient times, the compilation of the calendar was a specialized science, and it was difficult for ordinary scholars to pay attention to it, and Li Chunfeng was only in his 20s when he proposed the revision of the "Wuyin Yuan Calendar", which naturally attracted people's attention. He was also rewarded for this, and was awarded the title of Shoshiro, who joined the Taishi Bureau, and began his career as an official astronomer.
"Old Tang Dynasty Book Li Chunfeng Biography" contains: Li Chunfeng, Sui Renshou two years (Ren Xu) was born in Qizhou Yong (now Fengxiang County, Shaanxi), his father Li Bo, Sui Dynasty was a county government official, to rank and humble ambition, abandon the official and become a Taoist, quite learned, self-named Huang Guanzi, wrote ten volumes of Fang Zhitu, "Astronomical Elephant Fu" and so on. Therefore, Li Chunfeng, who was known as a "prodigy" since childhood, under the influence of his father, read a wide range of books, especially loved astronomy, geography, Taoism, yin and yang, and went to Nantuo Mountain in Henan Province at the age of nine to worship Yuan Daochang as a teacher. At the age of seventeen, he returned to his hometown, and was recommended by Li Shimin's friend Liu Wenjing to become Li Shimin's adviser and participated in the anti-Sui Xingtang uprising. In 618, Li Yuan called the emperor Li Shimin the king of Qin, and Li Chunfeng became the secretary of the Qin palace to join the army. In the first year of Tang Zhenguan, Li Chunfeng brought Shilang straight into the Taishi Bureau. In the Taishi Bureau, which was in charge of astronomy, geography, calendar-making, and history revision, Li Chunfeng was like a fish in water, fully demonstrated his intelligence, and worked hard for 40 years.
Moreover, according to the records, Li Chun's contribution to history can be described as a vehicle, such as the compilation of the scriptures, the compilation of the "Lin De Calendar" and the later reform of the armillary sphere and the pre-revision of the "Five Dynasties Historical Records", as well as an astrological work "Yi Si Zhan" and so on have a huge impact on later generations.
Not only that, there are also countless folk legends about Li Chunfeng, such as; The story of "Feng Shui" of Tiangongyuan is legendary, Tiangongyuan was built in the Tang Dynasty, and the Tiangongyuan rebuilt and continued in the Ming and Qing dynasties is now a provincial cultural relics protection unit. According to Li Wenming, vice president of the Langzhong Historical and Cultural City Research Association, when the local Tiangongyuan Village was declared a provincial-level historical and cultural village, aerial photography found that the tomb of Yuan Tiangang, the tomb of Li Chunfeng and the Tiangongyuan were all in a straight line. The location of Tiangong Courtyard is located, and its topography happens to be the center of "Nine Dragons Holding Saints".
Around the location of Tiangongyuan, there are nine distinct mountain ranges, and the mountains are like dragons, converging in Tiangongyuan from nine different directions. The dragon head of the nine dragons is held, that is, the location of the Heavenly Palace Temple. As a result, the saying of "Nine Dragons Holding the Saint" spread.
In recent years, the research results of the Langzhong Feng Shui Culture Research Association have shown that the "Feng Shui" of Tiangongyuan is indeed good. The researchers of the association believe that there is a reason why Yuan Tiangang, a generation of physiognomy masters, and Li Chunfeng, a generation of feng shui masters, came to Langzhong from Chang'an thousands of miles away when Bu Wang Qi traveled thousands of miles and stayed for the mountains and rivers in Langzhong. At the very least, the two masters identify with the local "Feng Shui".
A feng shui culture researcher named Yu Xingfu conducted a study on the feng shui of Chunfeng Temple a few years ago. Located not far from the Tiangong Temple, the ruins of Chunfeng Temple were the residences of Li Chunfeng when he lived in Langzhong.
Yu Xingfu's research found that Chunfeng Temple is located on a small hill beam that sits east to west, according to the topography, Chunfeng Temple is "sitting on Liang Xiangkun", the parent mountain where the temple sits is Liangyin Mountain, and the highest peak is on the Jia. Before his death, Master Chunfeng chose the area where the "Tianshiyuan", "Big Dipper Star Pillar" and "Wind Star" lived to study astronomical geography, observe the sky and the earth on the spot, and occupy the wind, which is indeed a rare and good place.
According to Yu Xingfu's statement, "Standing in Chunfeng Temple, looking out on all sides, surrounded by high mountains and loops, lush vegetation and trees, people's eyes are open-minded, and the weather is refreshing." The topography of Chunfeng Temple, such as "Luan Phoenix Flying", was called "Crane Society" here in the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, it is questionable whether the claims of Feng Shui are scientific. But "Feng Shui" as a phenomenon does exist objectively, which is enough to show that Li Chunfeng is still a feng shui master. Not only that, in the legend, there is an element of deifying Li Chunfeng, but it also highlights Li Chunfeng's excellence, such as its ability to predict the future, and there is such a story about a Tibetan poem made by Li Chunfeng for the emperor.
